The Weston Historical Society Newsletter was first published in Fall 2019 and replaces The Weston Historical Society Bulletin. Like the bulletin, the newsletter is published twice a year. Edited by Pam Fox, both publications include original research on Weston-related topics. Articles are welcome.
In 2020, all of the available Bulletins from the first issue in 1964 through 2018 were scanned and published online by Digital Commonwealth, and we have added the previously unpublished ones to this page as individual issues. They are now grouped by decade. There are a few missing or corrupted pages, which are noted at the file links. Each file can be individually text-searched while being viewed; our general site search does not currently handle searching PDF contents.
You can also view Digital Commonwealth's scans in their original large groupings on the Internet Archive's WHS page, where full text search of all the Bulletins is possible directly from that page (use the "Search this Collection" box). Hard copies of the back issues are available at the Weston Historical Society and Local History Room of Weston Public Library.
